Hurry Ilcrshfield's Dilemma
'I'hd.sc <if u.s wlio only make a [)ctty one huiulral tlKiu.sand or so a year cannot iniagiiic tliat the more fortunate, making, let us say, close to half a million a year, liavc tlitiir tronhk'S. IJiit it seems they do.
Take tlic famous humorist, Harry Her.shncld, for iiislauce. U|> at his olUce the other <lay. Morslilicld ptjiircd forth to IIS the bitterness of his heart. As will be recalled hy tlie readers of this colinnn, some time ai!;o we noted the fact that Her-shficld lia.'i written a book—The Sti- per-City, which i.s .soon to be released.
That in itself i.'i nothiiiK to pine over, but here is the rub. Uershfield knows that his reputation i.s that nf a humorist, and he is terribly concerned th;it his book will not he judged, as if, let us say, it was written by some serious writer with a few college degrees annexed to his nainc.
And yet "The Super-City", is a seri¬ ous study. U represents, one might say, the summation of the serious side,of this Kreat humorist. It hoils down his wclt- an.schauiig. It will have its humorous parts, hut they arc part of the natural unfolding of the story. It is not, how¬ ever, a deliberate attempt to make you lau^h or thrill you, though it may do both of those things. Its jiriniary purpose is to make you thiuk.
A Joke Is Not a Joke
There is no little basis in Hershfield's apprehensions. For some reason or other, the human being iJocs not seem able to take the humorist seriously.
It was said of the late Chaunccy De- l>ew that he could have been president of the United States, if It had not been for his irrepressible likiiiR for telling a good story.
I am old enough to believe that sonie- thing very similar might he said u{ WiU Roarers. We laughed, when .someone at the Democratic. National Convention nominated Will for President. A huge joke, we thought.
And yet, I <lare say, take a group of the most thoughtful .'Vmcricans iu a room together, and they will. ay;rce that few have "HO keen a perception of political realities as Rogers.
If we only saw deep enough, wc would realize that the humorist really sees deep¬ est of all—certainly, he is the most truth- fulof all. Life is overlaid with repres¬ sions, inhibitions and thou-shalt-nots. The humoi'ist is the only one we permit to tell .the.truth. If you want to mv. tiow. close is this identity to lium'or, next time you sec Mr. X vvhoin you so thoroughly dislike, just tell him vour real opinion of him. And let Mr. V, who knows Mr. X, too, be in, the audience. .And see how Mr. Y will break,his rib laughing. _ And yet we go along thinkinji that ,a jtilce is just a joke!
The Raakobs and Michclson
The Kaskohs appear to have an afiiiiitv for the Semitic. Onu of Raslcob's sons is. the press reports, to niarry a Jewess. The younger Raskob is only following the exam}ile of the elder Kaskoh, wlio recently "married" a noted Jewish iiews- pyi)erinan. Cliarles MichelBun, to the democratic party. And a very success- ful "marriage" that ha,-? been, as any praniiuent Repuhlican will tell you.
Charles Michelson. you recall, is a brother of the famous physicist, Albert Michelson. Charlc.'i for years had been head of the Washington bureau of the New York World. Then Raskob, when he became a force in the Democratic party, began to take note of him. If only he could get Michelson as publicity chief of the Democratic party!
Raskob consulted wi'th the other Demo¬ cratic chieftains. Yes, they admitted, Michelson would be a boon, but the World was payings him a high salary, and for a publicity job, he would undoubtedly ask a compensation much higher, ^ And, the Democratic chieftains pointed uut, the Democratic financial cliest is not over¬ filled.
But Raskob with his millions wag not daunted by this. He told his associates that he wouhl stand responsible fur the salary. .And for some time now, Michel- soil has been working, and the Republi¬ cans have been worrying. For Michelson knows his news and knows how to make it so that newspapers have no alternative hut to print it.
Worryinpr the Elephant
And yet Michelson hiuLsclf, as a good ' publicity man. kecp.s in the background. You never know that he is doing it. He merely goes, let us say, with some well concealed story to one of the Democratic senators. The story is a clever attack, let us say, on the Republican tariff. ¦ "Senator So aud So, how about issuing this statement tci the press? How about incoriH)rating this in your speech in the Senate?"
The next day it is done and the wires all ()ver the country arc soon carrying stories about, tlie G. O. P, and the de¬ pression and the like. The Republicans are frankly worried about Michelson. He is doing more than probably any other man in the country today to associate the idea of had times with the dominant party.
A Happy Face
Kyerylhiiig finally gets down to bed¬ rock, and the greater they are. the more apt are they to stress the simple elements.
'Ask any ordinarv i>ersoii for a descrip¬ tion of what qualities he would require in the ideal person, and the chances are that he will give you a long list starting with perseverance, iiitflHgetice, loyalty, etc., etc.
.Albert Einstein, the greatest living thinker, was asked this question and his auitwer is as refreshing as it is profound. • "The most deliKhtful thing the world af¬ fords is a happy face."
Apnarently a simple requirement, and vet a most rare sight. How many people do yon know who strain themselves, w<irry themselves sick, to grow,' so to
